Dutch GP: Just how decisive was Piastri'...

THE RACE MEDIA LTD
About this episode

We ask what Lando Norris’s engine failure in the Dutch Grand Prix gives Oscar Piastri a decisive advantage in the drivers’ championship fight in the latest edition of The Race F1 Podcast. 


Jon Noble and Mark Hughes join Edd Straw to dissect the race at Zandvoort and tackle the big talking points, including how Piastri had his McLaren team-mate beaten even before the failure. 


We also tackle Isack Hadjar’s heroics and explain how impressive his performance was, and what made the difference between his result and that of close midfield rivals.


We also take on questions from The Race Members’ Club, discuss Lewis Hamilton’s weekend as part of a look at Ferrari’s struggles and review the controversial penalty issued to Carlos Sainz.
